Live from the Edinburgh International Festival

Petroc Trelawny presents In Tune from The Hub in Edinburgh, with live music from the Dunedin Consort, pianists Pavel Kolesnikov and Samson Tsoy, and Barokksolistene.

As Storm Floris rages, Petroc Trelawny presents a special edition of In Tune live from The Hub – a towering Gothic Revival building at the top of the Royal Mile, and the home of the Edinburgh International Festival.

He speaks to Festival Director Nicola Benedetti, and there’s live music from some of the star performers taking part this year: members of the Dunedin Consort, pianists Pavel Kolesnikov and Samson Tsoy, and Barokksolistene led by Norwegian violinist Bjarte Eike. Petroc introduces music reflecting the city and its landmarks – and takes a musical walk down the Royal Mile, from Edinburgh Castle to Holyrood Abbey.
